VERSE 1: A D Way down upon the Swanee River A E7 Far, far away A D There’s where my heart is turning ever A E7 A There’s where the old folks stay
A D All up and down the whole creation A E7 Sadly I roam A D Still longing for my old plantation A E7 A And for the old folks at home
VERSE 2: A D All round the little farm I wandered A E7 When I was young A D Then many happy days I squandered A E7 A Many the songs I sung
A D When I was playing with my brother A E7 Happy was I A D Oh, take me to my kind old mother A E7 A There let me live and die
VERSE 3: A D One little hut among the bushes A E7 One that I love A D Still sadly to my memory rushes A E7 A No matter where I rove
A D When will I see the bees a-humming A E7 All round the comb? A D When shall I hear the banjo strumming A E7 A Down in my good old home
OUTRO: A D O lordy, how my heart grows weary A E7 A Far from the old folks at home
CHORUS: E7 A All the world is sad and dreary D A E7 Everywhere I roam A D O lordy, how my heart grows weary A E7 A Far from the old folks at home
